Christine’s 20th Birthday Photoshoot

I met this wonderful young lady at the gym about a year ago. Christine is like a younger sister to me. It’s been wonderful getting to see her grow, experience life and doing the things all young ladies should be doing: setting goals, achieving them and enjoying life. Christine has a great head on her shoulders, a wonderful personality, a warm heart and an even kinder spirit. To be a positive influence on someone you never thought you could touch has been amazing. Happy birthday, Christine! Thank you for having me capture this milestone in your life–enter your 20’s with an open mind, make good decisions, travel often, appreciate everyday like it’s your last and never look back with regrets. Cheers to starting a new wonderful decade!!

Christine is such a classy young lady. Styled her own outfits and did her own hair & make-up.Most girls love Hello Kitty–Christine is no exception.I LOVE this shot of her. It’s like a little girl at the happiest place she could dream up that came true.Don’t you love her choice of this vibrant, flowing House of Dereon gown?

Christine was inspired by Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Victoria Beckham for this 2nd outfit.Did I mention she also has a silly side?Pop culture did not escape Christine, she loves Edward and Christian like the rest of us ladies do.LOVE her smile.
